I was finally uploading the last few months of photos to print today and found this little video from May from one rare day that Keegan was not in the hospital. Thought I would share, since it brought a smile to my face. My two...
Once again, I feel like I need to apologize for not updating this blog often enough or well enough. At one time, this blog was therapeutic and even a cathartic outlet for me, as well as a way to keep our family, friends, and Keegan's...
A little update...
Today, we ventured downtown to the hospital for a transplant nursing visit to keep eyes on the bruised/bleeding port, a PICC line dressing change, and a play therapy appointment. The port looks about the same, perhaps somewhat better, than yesterday. It's the strangest thing, and...

Keegan just came back to his room after having a PICC line placed in his arm. This was his 40th round of general anesthesia. He's not even 4 years old. This time, he had a little oxygen dependency for about an hour afterward, but it...
This inpatient stay, that is. Keegan's port is still leaking. It's rather disgusting actually. We rested it Monday. Tuesday, surgery ran a dye study that showed the port is in tact (surprise), and they don't know what else to do. We had to access the...
